Our Director - Mrs. Theresa Scotton

After holding a teaching position with My First School, Theresa Scotton is delighted to be named the director of My First School and is eager to continue the tradition of excellence that has characterized My First School.                                                        

Her education includes a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education and Special Education from Hiram College and a Masters Degree in Reading from Kent State University.

Professionally, Theresa has had a variety of teaching experiences from special education, to online tutoring, to preschool, to raising her own children, and believes that every experience has given her new insights into how children think and learn and grow. She has several years of preschool experience teaching for the Hiram Cooperative Nursery School and being the 3’s teacher here at My First School.  She taught for nine years in the Nordonia Hills City School system in both Special Education and Third Grade before deciding to spend more time at home with her children. 

Theresa, and her husband, Gary, live in the Mantua area with their four children.  She loves to work with young children because they embrace learning with such eagerness and excitement.

Theresa looks forward to the many unique opportunities to serve the children and families at My First School and welcomes the chance to meet each of you.  She believes that every child is unique and should be given the opportunity to learn and grow in a safe and loving environment.

Please feel free to call (330-562-8070) or e-mail Theresa (tscotton@fbcaurora.org). She looks forward to talking about our preschool opportunities with you!

Our Curriculum

Our curriculum is designed to maximize your child’s learning ability. All children learn best by doing. We offer a balance of vigorous and quiet play, indoor and outdoor activities, and small and large group experiences. Projects incorporate language arts, whole language activities, small and large motor development, math readiness, music, science, computer, social development and pre-kindergarten readiness skills. We also include a Christian philosophy: children pray before snack, sing Christian songs and learn about heroes of the Bible.

Our Philosophy

Each child is a unique person, created by God, with great potential. We offer beautiful, well-organized, hands on environment. We touch, smell, look, taste, hear and do. Our goals are to enable children to grow in trust, independence, initiative, self-confidence, pre-academic skills, and to learn about God in a safe and caring environment. We use a developmentally appropriate environment to enhance all areas of the child including emotional, social, intellectual, spiritual, and physical so that each child can develop to their fullest potential.
